Recovery boiler selective catalytic reduction - a retrofit case

SCR – Selective Catalytic Reduction is a well-established and widely used technology for NOx removal from power boiler flue gases. Target emission levels are decreasing and SCR will soon be needed for recovery boilers. This article is an abstract of a white paper which presents a study for a retrofit case using SCR to lower NOx from 200 to 100 mg/m3 (6% O2, dry gas), including implementation of some high power features.
